Partly
Not dead but not alive.
I am partly—just partly.
Lying on the roses of death.
I gaze upon the stars.
They glow in the dark.
Beaconing me to come.
Not dead but not alive.
I wish for death to come.
I pray that Pathos comes quickly.
Death would be so sweet.
Life is over now.
I am partly.
I hear the crowds pass by.
I am unseen by all.
I hear the sweet sound of Rhiannon’s birds.
Their songs call to me.
Not dead but not alive.
The sun is rising.
My soul is getting free.
At last I join Pwyll’s side as he leads me to his wife’s Kingdom.
I am now real no more.
No longer partly but whole.
